Welcome to my Brainrot
HELLO TUMBLR
I am a passionate vexillologist and vexillographer. Flags are just the freaking coolest and an amazing form of art. Yes, I said art, it's that simple, y'all. There are good flags, bad flags, cool flags, and I want to look at and go over a lot of them
I'll cover flag news, updates, changes. And every now and then I'll look at flags that I find cool that most of y'all might not have seen
A little disclaimer, I'm not the official NAVA account on tumblr or any other social media, and my comments do not reflect the positions of the NAVA leadership and/or over all organization. I'm just a member and I want to promote the fact that they exist
For my first flag post, it'll be the flag behind the icon of the blog. A little banner I whipped up for an old account on NationStates
I, personally, love this beauty. Distinctive, has a nice eagle and has some purple (we love purple here). Ngl I can't remember the symbolism I made this so long ago. But still a good flag (in my opinion)
Tumblr media
I hope y'all will stick around!

I got mildly interested in flag design after watching videos like this...
youtube
... and this.

Anyway, the North American Vexillological Association (people who study flag design) voted Pocatello Idaho as the worst city flag in the country. To be fair, it was truly terrible.
Tumblr media
A few years ago, Pocatello took that judgement to heart, and finally decided to redesign their flag. This is their new flag, which is lovely.
Tumblr media
Anyway, I'm saying all this to show you a design that they considered, but ultimately dropped in favor of the red mountain above.
Tumblr media
I think this flag design is so cool and unique, and just deserves to see the light of day. It fits perfectly because Pocatello is the "crossroads of the west". This diagonal cross hatch design just makes me happy, and I kind of wish it had been chosen. Maybe something similar can make it onto another official flag someday.

Arguably the best part about being Canadian is having grown up with a miniature house hippo.

This would be my second cover design for my recently completed alternate history novella "Carthage Atlantica". This one shows hostile Native American warriors attacking a Carthaginian war elephant in the forests of eastern North America (the Natives' attire is based on those worn by warriors of the pre-Columbian Mississippian culture).

Last week we went to the Missouri Botanical Garden (MOBOT) as part of our summer vacation. Technically we were in St. Louis for a wedding, but my sister had free tickets to the garden through her work, so we decided to take a few days and do all the fun St. Louis things.
Now, MOBOT has been under construction for a while for a new visitor’s center. As luck would have it, the day we were there, the Garden Members were having an exclusive preview of said new visitor’s center. My family (+sister’s roommate that tagged along) are not members, so we figured we’d see it some other time.
MOBOT is famous specifically for it’s massive tropical greenhouse, the Climatron. It looks a little bit like THIS:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And is home to over 400 varieties of plant life, according to Wikipedia. It’s fantastic and a fun place to walk through (and air-conditioned!) and I highly recommend it. This is also where we met Diane.
Diane, if I remember correctly, has volunteered at the Botanical Garden for 15 years. She was walking through the Climatron and stopped to chat with us near the end, when my sister and her roommate were throwing water bottles at us and telling us to hydrate. Diane asked if we’d enjoyed our visit thus far (Yes) have we been here before (Yes) and most importantly, did we see the pitcher plants in the middle of the Climatron? (Absolutely)
At this point, I’m vibrating in hyperfixation. I FUCKING love pitcher plants, dudes. Yes! I saw them! I know so much about them! They are my beloveds! Diane asks me if there are pitcher plants that are bigger than the Climatron’s. I practically vibrate out of my skin with a “Yes! Some can even catch small mammals and reptiles!” I didn’t even get to mention the Bats! Diane is thoroughly impressed with me regardless! She would hire me on the spot if she had that authority, and tells me as much. She continues asking questions about pitcher plants. I continue answering them. Diane continually says she wants me to work at MOBOT. I think it would be a dream, personally.
We eventually part ways with Diane, and head out to the Home Gardening Center. In retrospect I maybe should have asked about keeping my pumpkins safe from pests (squash bugs FUCK OFF challenge). We wander the demonstration gardens for a bit before realizing among their veggies that we’re all starving. You cannot eat the veggies out of the MOBOT veggie garden, because if everyone with vaguely sticky fingers did there would be no vegetables to display, and that defeats the purpose.
Luckily, MOBOT has a tram system, and there’s a stop right outside our current location. Since they do have to pay their workers, however, the tram is five bucks per person if you’re not a member. It is what it is. We’re resigned to shell out thirty bucks (hopefully to replace the dead cobra lily in one of the nearby flower beds, may it rest in pepperonis) when someone hollers at us from the tram. It’s Diane! She remembers us!
Diane, in addition to being a volunteer, is a member. And members, she points out to the tram driver, can bring five non-members onto the tram free of charge. Our group is six. The tram driver, feeling the spirit of giving, lets our sixth person on under her own membership. Diane asks where we’re heading as the tram starts moving. We explain that we’re looking to get food, and also could we leave the garden and come back? Is that allowed? Diane confirms that’s allowed, BUT she has a better idea.
The tram takes us around the long way, past the Japanese Garden, Henry Shaw’s house, and one of the botanical museums. Somewhere in there I tell the story of Persephone, as her statue resides along this route, and I have a cat named after her. We make it back as close to the front as is possible by tram, and Diane marches us to the old visitor’s center. It is connected to the new one by a single door, guarded by a nice young woman. Diane tells her that we’re with her, and we’re all going into the new visitor’s center. The young woman is fairly certain this is breaking some rules. Diane tells her it’s fine.
The new visitor’s center is gorgeous, y’all. We all follow Diane down to the snack bar for sandwiches (we were planning to eat a big dinner, so we didn’t need a whole lot). She makes sure we don’t need a membership to actually buy the food. Once that’s all settled, she tells me she’ll see me soon (presumably as a staff member) and promptly vanishes into the garden, never to be seen again by us.
There’s good in this world, guys. There always has been. And sometimes it’s in the botanical garden, and it’s curious about pitcher plants.
